It looks like Redis, Inc. has announced that future versions of

All I can say is... :(
Amazon (AWS) is setting up a BSD-licensed fork, but has not yet decided on
the final name:
https://github.com/placeholderkv/placeholderkv
We will see whether that or redict will get the most attention. Cloud
companies like Amazon will probably prefer BSD, whereas contributors worried
about another "Redis, Inc." coming up and taking their forked code
proprietary too will most likely prefer the LGPL fork (redict) (unless they
are unhappy about the use of version 3.0 only of the LGPL by that fork).
